Laser surgery
In laser resurfacing, sometimes called "laser peel," a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser is used to remove unwanted or damaged areas as well as wrinkled skin, layer by layer. This laser Switzerland plastic surgery procedure is most commonly used to minimize the appearance of fine lines, especially around the mouth and the eyes. However, it is also effective in treating facial scars or areas of uneven pigmentation. Laser resurfacing may be performed on the whole face or in specific regions.
Often, the laser Switzerland plastic surgery procedure is performed in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures such as a facelift or eyelid surgery. All resurfacing treatments work essentially the same way. First, the outer layers of damaged skin are stripped away. Then, as new cells form during the healing process, a tighter, younger-looking skin surface appears. Laser resurfacing is a new method being used by Riviera Plastic Surgery Center to remove damaged skin.
The final result from laser resurfacing may take several months to fully appear. However, once the pinkness fades, patients usually notice a significant improvement in the quality of their skin and a fresher, smoother appearance. It's important to understand that your results will be long-lasting, but not permanent. Laser treatments can usually be repeated. However, by protecting yourself from the sun and following a skin-care regimen recommended by our plastic surgeon, you can help maintain your rejuvenated look.
